1t may be some announcement to our
hard pressed farmers and tobacco growers
10 learn that the market for this crop seems
L. still have an upward tendency with the
prospect of an active demand for the crop
at good prices. All reports we have re-
ceived from Baltimore indicate Il better
feeling among the buyers, and those com
mission men with whom we have talked
on the subject say that in their opinion the
improvement is permanent and not sponta-
neouS nor due Ia any special demand for
the crops at this particular time. When
in Baltimore one day last week we called
at the buSinesS-housc of Messrs Thomas G..
Price X Co, and learned that they had
just sold for Mr.. W. Mex. Burroughs ten
hogshcads At prices ranging from to 8
cents; most OF il selling at and Q cents.
They had at the same time sold for Mr.. L.
X. Ching five hogSheadS at q, and : cents:
for Mr.. J. X. Ryce. of ST Mary's, five hogs
heads at from 5 to 10 cents, and for Mr.. D..
;. BowleS, also of ST. Mary's, one hogs
head aty cents. These are excellent prices
and far in excess Of any general prices for
the past several years and we hope that
our farmers may this year realize Il good
sum for their tobacco crups.-Port Tobacco

The sues Charges.

There are two sides 10 every question
and those who read carefully the following
letter from Mr. \. Needham will, no doubt,
acknowledge that forcible reasons are given
for the freight charges that at present OBJ
tain with the sue" management The
letter, which explains Itself, is in reply 10 a
communication from a prominent farmer
Of this section:
You say that times are hard with the
Farmers, and am sorry 10 inform you
that steamboat owners are in the same fix,
rs the cos: Of repairing and running steam
ors, with the single exception # coal, is
more now than il was even during the war,

per day.
In regard L. the freight on Fertilizers. |
know that it seems costly To- You {" pay
$500 freight on what costs YOU but $500,
hut it would bc an impo>sibility for us t.
carry such ireigh; on percentage 81 cost, for
if We did il would make either the freight
on Peruvian guann $4,000 per ton or ON
plaster 20 per ton, and although the risk
in case of loss is Us it costs a much to
haul ton nf plaster as it does ton OF any
kind OF fertilizer
The rate on seed wheat or corn from
here is l2c per bag, the same Is it is 10
bring it here.
NJ one in public Business can consult his
interest without regard a. those If hislcuS-
toners, hut OF course he cannot be expected
t. protect their interest nj n financial loss
10 himself
In regard Ia two trips week 10 Wash
ington, know that it would hc of great
advantage a. the steamer, and the matter
has been thoroughly studied. but the diff
ticulty is that the bnat cannot make them
in seven DAYS.
Now in regard "a the reduction in rates
increasing the amount of business in a large
ratio. will state that it is an easy matter
IA reduce but very difficult matter TO
advance We have in the last few years
reduced the rate on passengers about 80
per cent, on tobacco about Is per cent, on
grain about Ii per cent, and on down
freights from here from 10 To 20 per cent
without receiving any additional volume
of business.
If there was certainty Of one steamer
having full lead on each trip there would
be nom for us Ia reduce the rates material
~. but rs il is We are running ten months
IL do a business that we could easily hand
" in five and 81 far. as have before stated.
our experience has been the less the rate
the less the amount Of freight
